Sofia the Worst (also known as Bad Sofia) is an evil copy of Princess Sofia, who appeared in the Sofia the First episode, "Sofia the Second".
Background[]
Personality[]
Sofia the Worst looks and sounds like the real Sofia, but her personality is the complete opposite. Instead of being kind and caring, she is a badly behaved girl, who likes to cause trouble and wreak havoc just for fun.
Physical appearance[]
Sofia the Worst looks like her good-aligned counterpart, but with a pink dress instead.
Role in the Series[]
Bad Sofia makes her debut in "Sofia the Second", where she appears after Sofia creates her with Cedric's copying spell so she could go to the Highland Hootenanny and keep her promise to show Lady Joy around the castle at the same time. Sofia gives her a doll and tells her what to do, which she happily agrees to. After Sofia leaves, Sofia the Worst, however, reveals her true colors as an evil twin to Clover, who realizes Sofia had messed up the spell when she made her. When Clover tries to go warn the real Sofia, Bad Sofia grabs him, locks him into Wormwood's cage, and runs off to where she meets Joy. After the real Sofia leaves, Bad Sofia causes trouble throughout the castle, until she finally gets bored with Joy and ditches her so she can go to the Hootenanny.
At the Hootenanny, Bad Sofia bumps into the real Sofia, who asks her what she's doing here and who's playing with Joy. Sofia the Worst then tells her she's here to have fun and who's playing with Joy is her problem. After Sofia tells her she's not being very nice, Bad Sofia tells her "That's because I'm not very nice. I'm a bad Sofia." She then proceeds to tell the real Sofia "You can call me Sofia the Worst." She then throws the entire Hootenanny into chaos, until the real Sofia throws her into a barn and locks her in.
Unfortunately, Bad Sofia escapes and follows the real Sofia back to the castle, where she causes even more trouble by knocking over Gilbert's bridge model and mocking Sofia's clumsiness. The real Sofia, Joy, and Cedric proceeded to chase her into the room where King Roland and Lord Gilbert were having a meeting, causing everyone to find out about the two Sofias. After Roland asks on what's going on, Bad Sofia proceeded to point out that the real Sofia had made her. The real Sofia then admits to her father that she used Cedric's copying spell so she could be in two places at once. At the real Sofia's request, Cedric undoes the spell that created Bad Sofia and she ceases to exist, vanishing in a puff of smoke.
Trivia[]
- Sofia the Worst is one of many characters who are opposite doubles to the hero/heroine in other TV Shows, like Negaduck from Darkwing Duck, Evil Jake from American Dragon: Jake Long, and NomiRandy from Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja.
- Her name is likely a reference to the lyrics in the song from Robin Hood, "The Phony King of England": "Too late to be known as John the First, he's sure to be known as John the Worst".
- The only difference between the real Sofia's and Bad Sofia's appearances is that the real Sofia usually wears a purple dress while Bad Sofia's dress is pink, due to the duplication spell being cast incorrectly. If the spell had been cast correctly, then she would've had a purple dress. Plus, Bad Sofia removed her amulet and gave it to Joy.
- In the book Sofia the Second, Bad Sofia is referred to as Pink Sofia due to the color of her dress.
- Strangely, Bad Sofia was able to understand Clover despite her amulet not being real. It may be that Sofia was able to give her copy her powers when she cast the spell.
- She is the first Sofia the First character to die on-screen, being disintegrated when Cedric undoes the spell in which she was created.
